Lilly King wins the latest Cold War. On

100-meter breaststroke, Yuliya Yefimova, noting that
she wasn't a fan of swimmers who cheat, while also mocking her

her words, beating Yefimova for gold. After the race, King
threw some more shade at Yefimova, as King called her gold
medal "incredible ... knowing I did it clean."
